This delightful semi-detached Victorian cottage has two bedrooms and a huge back garden. Located close to the centre of Cheshunt and within walking distance of shops, the station and green spaces it offers all the attractions of small town life alongside excellent local amenities and fast connections to the centre of the capital.

Small but perfectly formed, this property has the special charm of a period cottage and the cutting-edge convenience of contemporary fixtures and fittings. In excellent condition throughout, it has been totally refurbished and tastefully decorated to provide a lovely family home with a spacious living room, two double bedrooms, a modern kitchen and bathroom, and a gorgeous garden.

A traditional covered porch provides a convenient transition into the living room which has a sunny south-facing window and simple neutral décor that emphasis the sense of light. The kitchen/diner is at the rear of the property. This large, square room is well-equipped, featuring matt white fitted wall and floor cabinets with freestanding and integrated appliances, a metro-tiled splashback and a window above the sink with garden views. There’s plenty of space for a dining table, and there are doors to the garden and the bathroom. A warm wood floor runs throughout these two main rooms on the ground floor and pastel décor creates a calm ambience.

The bathroom has great natural light and ventilation, and ample space for a contemporary suite that comprises a bath with a shower, a wall-hung washbasin and a WC. It’s manly tiled and has a smart monochrome colour scheme.

The first floor is home to two double bedrooms that are almost equal in size. The rear bedroom is marginally bigger and has a built-in cupboard and garden views. Both can easily accommodate a large double bed and bedroom furniture.

Outside there’s a cottage garden at the front (complete with picket fence), and gated side access to the 85 foot long rear garden. This has been thoughtfully landscaped, with a paved terrace adjacent to the rear of the house, a raised deck, a long lawn with a planted border and, at the end, a vegetable patch and a handy shed.
